Road crossing awareness
Street safety refers to the conditions, practices, and measures that protect people from harm while using public roads and sidewalks.
It encompasses awareness of traffic, well-lit walkways, crosswalk usage, and vigilance against crime or accidents.
Parents teach children street safety basics like looking both ways before crossing.
Urban planners consider street safety when designing intersections, bike lanes, and pedestrian zones.
